First of all we will discuss regarding what is actually Smart Work? Smart work is the way of doing things with the presence of mind and doing things in a easier way as compare to normal people.

In CA course or we can say that in every course there are two types of students. Ones who do really hard work and get success after so much pain and the smart ass who do simple but effective things which results in 100% success without getting so much pain. So let’s start the 7 Smart works that will make your CA Exams easier.

1. Using Practice manual instead of Private tutor’s scanners:-

Most of the students forgets that ICAI has also provided them something really important material along with regular syllabus study material i.e. PRACTICE MANUAL. Practice manual contains the most important past year papers which has a fairly chance to come in the exams. It has been observed that most of the time question from the past year has been repeated without any change of name etc.

Practice manual is most effective for practical papers such as Accounts, Costing, Financial Management but it is not of lower importance for theory papers such as ISCA, ITSM, Audit and Law etc.

2. One Subject One Book

In my student life I had observed that most of the students were always confused in selecting books for each subject (which I will suggest you in next tip) and as a result uses more than one book for each subject. This is the worst part for preparation for CA exams. Using more than book creates mind disturbance for you and as result after reading both of the books with more hard work you have to face failure.

3. Choosing right books for respective subjects

ICAI had designed the subjects for CA IPCC as well as for CA Final with a great combination of theoretical as well as practical subjects. Today I will suggest you to how to choose books for various subjects.

First of all we will take example of practical subjects such as Costing, Financial Management, and Accounts. For these type of papers never buy books from a private tutor’s. Institute’s study material is more than sufficient for that. Study material as well as practice manual contains as much as question that are relevant to pass CA Examination. So Crux for practical subject is Institute Study material and practice manual and no to private tutors books.

Secondly for theoretical subjects such as Audit, Law, ITSM, ISCA, Direct taxes and Indirect Taxes. For these type of subjects using study material as main book sometime results in overloading on yourselves. So buy Lighter books with lesser pages for such type of subjects and side by side use Institute’s Practice Manual for that because as suggested above Practice manual will make you clear your CA exams in a single trip.

4. Choosing Articleship

Never Study on Sundays

It has been recommended that one should not study continuous for more than 6 days. So you should take rest on Sundays atleast. This will cheer you up and make your next week study wise more effective.

Do less question but Practice them a lot

This mainly relates to Practical Subjects. It is recommended for you to do less questions for each topics and practice/revise them many times. Doing 100 question one time has less importance then doing 10 question Ten times.

Be Motivated

Last but not the least is being motivated. Motivation is the thing that will make you succeed even after you had lesser time for any reason for your exams. If you had practiced a lot for your exams but you are not motivated then there are fairly lesser chances for your success in exams. So watch motivational Videos quotes etc.
